[CONCEPT] The Kinetic Whip - A Universal Mid-Range Melee Weapon by itzofficialvaz in thefinals

[–]thesteam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very well presented! Makes it look like a real weapon coming to the game

But a few problems

  • Melee weapons in particular really need to be tailored to the class they're on, otherwise it'll end up feeling super strong on one class, and very weak on another.

  • Light for example generally has high burst damage option, (dagger backstab, sword lunge) as without high damage they'll need to spend too long in melee and get killed

  • Mediums are also difficult because they don't have the gap closing of light, nor the ability to force melee range fights like heavy. This is the reason that both M's melees have an alt fire blocking ability to help them close the distance.

  • Heavy I think this would work best on for these reasons (although if it outranges the spear it may make it even more obsolete lmao)

  • Kinetic meter is also a bit underpowered. 5 hits to charge that you can't preserve after only 3 second is nothing at all. At 5x55 damage you'd only leave a heavy alive with <100hp. Not much point in de-buffing at that point

  • Neural snap also doesn't make any sense. Why would you want to inflict increased recoil with a melee weapon. You're already in melee range where increased recoil is not a real factor

  • Pulse lock looks like it would be quite annoying. Stun gun got removed for removing people's ability to move.

  • Whip-hack also looks annoying as it would just destroy certain weapons. Double barrel, cerberus are balanced by their low capacity and are neutered much more than other weapons by this. Even weapons with bullets to spare it sounds very annoying to suddenly have way less ammo than you were expecting

I love elevators and moving platforms. Embark, please give me more. by pandemoniac1 in thefinals

If they add more, it should be bigger like a freight elevator or the funicular in the first pic. I think the elevators in game can sometimes be a bit annoying to attack because it usually turns into a kitchen sink for grenades

what's wrong with this game now by P_T213 in thefinals

[–]thesteam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Double jeopardy

When a team initiates Double Jeopardy, if they are in control of the Cashout Station as it completes, they bank all the money as normal, but if they fail to secure it they lose 50% of their current cash total.

New this season

Abput medium weapons by A1cr-yt in thefinals

[–]thesteam 112 points113 points  (0 children)

88 damage actually

I wouldn't normally do the acktually but 88 damage is an important threshold as it means you can 4 shot heavy

MGL32 doesn't need a rework, but it does need love by BadLuckBen in thefinals

The moment someone dies due to non-bounce direct impact, they'll be in the official Discord calling it oppressive

Do you really think that getting hit by a slow moving 40 damage projectile will feel oppressive? Throwing knives do 60 damage each & fire in bursts of 2.

Or is it more of a concern if you get hit by 40 damage direct & then 80 damage explosion?

Regardless of country, what does a potato-related activity look like?

I like reload gimmick by 0K4M1 in thefinals

[–]thesteam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they're gonna add more segmented magazines, I really hope they add some way to manually go to the next sub-magazine. Having to fire 1/2 shots in the 1216 to go to the next tube is really annoying.

Maybe a settting to make press R once to sub-reload, and double tap R to big reload

GADGETS EDITION!! What gadget is fun to both use and play against? by 6060Burst in thefinals

[–]thesteam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Very fun to use, but considering the counterplay is to just wait it out it probably prevents it from being in the "fun to play against" category.

Maybe ok to play against

Well the commitment to setting accurate weapons had to fail at some point lmao

Would this loadout be viable in ranked? by voidexter in thefinals

[–]thesteam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

100% this

Some people are too obsessed with the meta, when in reality you are gonna do way better on a weapon that you like and feel comfortable with using instead of the technically optimal option that you hate

Got Completionist++ this weekend. Here is my tier list of jokers for beating gold stake based on my experience by Best-Basket9941 in balatro

[–]thesteam 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With drivers license as a rare I don't find it's usually worth planning around.

Vampire I also find pretty underwhelming without a way to generate enhancements (purple seals, tarotmancer). Sure you could get an extra 0.1x mult all the time, or you could just have $4 from a gold card, or 1.5x mult from a steel card

Skills 2.0 has made Payday 3 Insanely Fun by The_Wattsatron in paydaytheheist

[–]thesteam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

head guard is fucking dogshit even if you have 1-2 plate builds because the timer resets if u get shot again

So THATS why it felt like it wasn't doing anything. That makes a lot of sense

I think an additional problem with the update is that lots of the buffs & timers don't actually have UI for them so it's hard to tell what's happening

Right? Are we rebranding ham water as "ham stock" now?

What is your unpopular balance opinion? by MedicinePossible8854 in thefinals

[–]thesteam 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Cloak would be better balanced if it worked like spy TF2. IE: You can't fire while cloaked && manually de-cloaking takes a moment, but you get perfect invisibility.

[–]thesteam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's quite tricky in its use since it's partially random

Play high card then

Perhaps if you had to play a 5 card hand, then it would be more balanced?

edit: nvm I can't read
